I’m not the only freak in my marriage. Here’s proof. Last year, my kids and I got bamboozled into what we thought was a vacation on Martha’s Vineyard. It was actually the “Jaws” tour.

Brody’s house? Saw it. The beach that the Kinter boy’s raft washed up on? Went there. The docks where Quint took the Orca out to kill the fish with Brody and Hooper? Spent an afternoon there. Oh well – my kids will need something to tell their future therapist, this is good enough.

Why should we have to suffer alone….below are a few of the stops on the tour.

the aforementioned docks…

. Town Hall where Brody fought to shut the beach down Something happened here, but I can’t remember

Cast/crew stayed here during filming (yep, stayed there)

Jaws bridge – spot where the shark went from the ocean to the bay (or something). Apparently everyone jumps off it. That’s my girl jumping off – squeezing in some fun.

I didn’t mention it in the blog – but we watched the movie the night before we left with the kids (because isn’t that normal and health?!). Nothing gets you in the mood to go to the ocean like the ultimate shark movie – but that’s how we roll.
